Foster Home Feedback

8/13/26 Foster Feedback: Professor Shelly may look like a little copy-and-paste of her mama, but she has plenty of personality all her own! She is an outgoing, independent little firecracker who loves to play and explore. Shelly also seems to have a natural peacekeeper streak with her siblings and is often right in the middle of the action. Even with her independent side, she still looks to her people and absolutely loves attention and affection. She’s a fun, confident girl with a great mix of spunk and sweetness.​ To view additional dogs available for adoption, please see our website: www.4luvofdog.org
